It's risky though because whoever buys it will just be praying the team stays or they're going to own an extra 7% of a team that's in Seattle. All in all it's not that significant other than publicity.

From the linked article it mentioned that it is a three week process just to get approved by the NBA to purchase that seven percent.
This!pinksheets":112tv2as said:It's also worth noting that all of the talk of Sac's group's offer is that it will be strong, fair, competitive, etc., the same talk before we found out Mastrov sent the NBA $3.25 and some Outback Steakhouse gift certificates. I think it's unlikely the Sac group is planning on matching the Seattle offer dollar for dollar, instead counting on sentimentality and an obscene public subsidy to make up the difference. It won't and NBA owners will never tell the Maloofs they have to sell for less. The team is simply not worth as much in Sacramento and it just doesn't pencil out.
When Sacramento talks, Seattle spends. KJ slings mud, Hansen makes it rain. Chris has got this.

I really hope Cousins is one of 'em that's gone.
hheh! HEH! The troll's getting irate from informed logic. Now I know the Sonics are coming back! (knock wood, which I just did).SacHawk2.0":2ymxn7di said:You shut your dirty whore mouth
